understanding Spanish throws it off, but this is hilarious either way. LOL

Reasonable stance, though not sure it will remain viable.

I’m trying to figure what’s so bad about humans using LLMisms. They seem quite useful at quickly conveying meaning using well-accepted terms.

It may mean our brains are not currently equipped to understand the universe.

Aprox how much does something like this unit cost?

The more I use Claude Code the harder it is for me to believe this behavior is a byproduct of the model. Behavior = ridiculously token inefficiencies

I love the ## Why README section! Every repo should have one :-)

Sometimes it feels like Anthropic uses token processing as a throttling tool, to their advantage.

Who cares if it’s LLM written or assisted writing?

What matters is the content!

Still amazed how much fun it is to play a 36KB Stargate Defender!

Oh c’mon! Do you really believe we actually sent space probes ~15.0 billion miles from earth?

Next you’ll tell me that the message from humanity was read by someone later linked to Nazi-era activities (though not a confirmed war criminal in the legal sense).

he does mention https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/zlib-rs not just https://github.com/madler/zlib, but it would be interesting to hear from those developers also

The argument here is valid, if I read this correctly. Why can’t Apple simply allow your iPhone SIMPLY be just a transportable PC, that you can connect a keyboard, mouse, and monitor and do anything else you can do with Echo or any Apple computer? [EDIT]Provided that some functionalities (the phone) be walled off for security.

New comment by hybrid_study in "Unix Isn't for Agents"

hybrid_study — Thu, 05 Mar 2026 17:06:51 +0000

This is kinda expected — OSes aren’t going to suddenly be rewritten for AI. What we’re really seeing is a hybrid model: hardware and kernel stay the same (primitives, isolation, scheduling), and on top of that you get an AI runtime / agent platform that handles task scheduling, shared state, and inter-agent coordination. Agents, tools, and workflows sit above that, orchestrating tasks. Deterministic programs remain because they’re cheaper, faster, and easier to verify; the AI layer just adds a structured way to coordinate and automate things without replacing the underlying OS. Basically, the kernel stays the substrate; the “agentic paradigm” lives above it.

No Nano-texture display option. Damn you, Apple!
